I am writing to inform you that, Mrs Dadd will be leaving us at the end of this term as she has decided to focus her teaching in a different area.

 

We are sad to see Mrs Dadd leave.  She has been part of the journey of Sunny Bank Primary School and welcomed so many of our nursery and reception children into our school over the years on the start of their educational journey.

 

I know that you will all want to join me in thanking Mrs Dadd for her significant contribution to the learning of all of our children over the years and in wishing her well on her onward journey.

 

I am pleased to also inform you; that Miss Michel will be returning as EYFS leader to take over as main class teacher for Acorn class after Easter. Miss Michel is an experienced leader who has taught at Sunny Bank previously. She has worked with Mrs Dadd this year in our Early Years setting, knows our children well, will ensure that the high standards of education that we expect within the Island Learning Trust will continue and that our children will thrive and make excellent progress.

 

Miss Michel will be job sharing with Mrs Harland. Mrs Harland has taught in EYFS at Sunny Bank and is a very experienced Early Years teacher. I know that you will join me in welcoming both teachers to our school.

We have been putting plans in place to ensure this strong continuity of teaching and I wanted to ensure that the forward plan was firmly in place before informing parents.

 

Both Miss Michel and Mrs Harland will be outside the EYFS at the end of the school day today, for parents who haven’t already met them. Please do come and say hello.

 

If you have any questions around this, please do speak to me or a member of our SLT.

 

As always, I thank you in advance for your understanding and your support as partners in our children’s education.

 

 

Mr Allen
